In February, PBS is airing a documentary by Ken Burn's called "America's Best Idea: The National Parks."  In celebration, the National Parks Foundation and ARAMARK Parks and Destinations are giving away a free trip to one of America's most popular national parks.

Participating is easy – just share with the world one, or all, of your favorite spots in America's national parks.  Anytime during the month of February, visit http://thisisyourland.nationalparks.org to explore America's 392 national parks online, and then mark your spot by sharing your favorite moments, stories and experiences.  Individuals that add their spot to at least one park will be entered to win a three night trip for two, including lodging and airfare, to their choice of the following destinations located in, or within close proximity to, some of America's most beloved parks:

• Shenandoah National Park
• Mesa Verde National Park

The grand prize winner will also receive a $300 resort credit to use towards meals and/or activities (cannot be used towards lodging, retail, fuel, or any non-ARAMARK managed operations), and an official  "America's Best Idea" book signed by filmmakers Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan.  In addition, twenty runner-up winners will receive an "America's Best Idea" poster signed by Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan, and a limited edition National Park Foundation "America's Best Idea" t-shirt.

Individuals can add one new spot to http://thisisyourland.nationalparks.org each day to increase their chances of winning.  The National Park Foundation and ARAMARK Parks and Destinations will announce the winners in March.  For more information and complete contest rules visit: www.nationalparks.org/thisisyourlandsweeps
